getting more in touch with my folk roots....




She’s a small town girl
with big time dreams
she’s got a lot to offer
but this is not her scene
and she digs sublime
and she can make me scream
and the world one day will be at her feet
I write songs
so does she
im folk rock, she’s new age
but together we make a good team
when I wake up with her
I feel like im still in a dream

california calls her and I know
it will be so hard to watch her go
because I love her to death
and we we’ll fill in the rest
when I pack up my bags and I head west
and we got the ocean to swim the mountains to climb
and will sing songs about the times
when you were the girl across the street
that I was too scared
to come over and meet

let’s not talk about this tonight
I’ll just hold you tight x2

when we get old
when we get gray
I will love her the same as I do today
with the distance in between us
and the ocean in her eyes
I will still hear her every time she cries
and every time she laughs
I’ll remember when she slept
when I wrote her lullabies
and sang them on the grass
and she looks great in minnesota air
I can see her better with sand in her hair

lets not talk about it tonight I’ll hold you tight
lets not cry about it tonight just let me hold you tight
